Finnish soldiers are training with paper maps and compasses to prepare for scenarios where GPS is unavailable due to enemy interference.
The lesson was learned from the Ukraine conflict, where heavy electronic warfare tactics, including GPS spoofing, were employed by both sides.
Finnish military is emphasizing the importance of not solely relying on GPS and ensuring soldiers can verify information using traditional navigation methods.
Several other militaries and defense industry companies are also adapting to the evolving electronic warfare landscape to enhance survivability in GPS-denied environments.
